"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Would you walk away?

Hey all,

This morning I got off the train and asked a reasonably attractive girl how she was doing. She gave me a look, it wasn't a 'f&*k off' look but more like she didn't want to be bothered. She said good and I asked if she had a big night. Same short response so I just kept walking.

When you're in that position, do you walk away? I have a problem with over-analysing peoples body language, facial expressions etc and quite often get the wrong impression that they're not interested.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Maybe you should get off the train or whatever you are doing and get straight to the point like the following:

Excuse me, I don't have time for small talk because I just got off my train, and I've got to get going. I'd like to take you out. Can I get your number?

If she doesn't like it, don't be apologetic for appreciating her beauty. Don't apologize for being a man. Oh well!

Maybe someone else has something better, but that's what I would do.

Both of tick37's ideas are great, though if you're going to use the first one, make sure that your voice tonality, body language, and eye contact are perfect.
